Jesse J. Hagenaars*, Federico Paredes-Vallés*, Guido C.H.E. de Croon The field of neuromorphic computing promises extremely low-power and low-latency sensing and processing. …
A gas leak in a large building or at an industrial site is difficult to find. Human firefighters cannot see the gas, so they have …
Optical flow for small flying robots Flying insects heavily rely on optical flow for visual navigation and flight control. Roboticists have endowed small flying robots …
A drone that can fly sustainably for long distances over land and water, and can land almost anywhere, will be able to serve …
Neuromorphic processors like Loihi offer a promising alternative to conventional computing modules for endowing constrained systems like micro air vehicles (MAVs) with robust, …

We are very proud to officially announce that we have won the AlphaPilot Drone Racing Innovation challenge!
Our latest paper in Science Robotics presents the first swarm of tiny robots that can explore unknown environments completely by themselves. No map, no memory, and no GPS!
researchers from TU Delft have developed a ‘pelican drone’: a drone capable of taking water samples quickly, in combination with a measuring instrument that immediately analyses the water quality.
